A phylum is a taxonomic category; it is not a habitat. Taxonomic categories are used to group organisms in a meaningful manner. Since Darwin formally presented the idea of evolution, there has been an attempt to categorize organisms based on their evolutionary relationships.

The genus Paramecium is grouped in the phylum Ciliophora.
